Hey, thanks for helping out! What hit? What was the impact, and how do you feel about it?
If you have the time, and there are many hits, please feel free to share yer hit list. Maybe I am not sensitive enough to feel real impacts?
I mean, my friend, it looks like the same the same Dog and Pony show as last time, and the time before that...etc. Different circumstances, same shoot-um-up, same rodeo, same delusion... but you can help?

Well, there's certainly the same Daug-sans-pony show here. Same old thing. Same superior stance. Same nothing-enlightening-or-illuminating-to-say contributions. Same superiority-of-tone. Same pretending-to-a-higher-knowledge-but-backed-by-nothing stance.

And that's why I ran off to Thailand.. No not really, but I am currently in Thailand working and missed the events. My daughter participated in the demonstrations in Chicago. She has been sending me pics/videos and brief updates.
